Former World No.7 David Goffin recently suffered a humiliating defeat in the very first round of the US Open 2021. Facing America’s Mackenzie McDonald, he didn’t look comfortable in the entire match and thus, lost the match in straight sets. The final scoreline of the match was 2-6, 5-7, 3-6.

Surprisingly, the match at the US Open 2021 became the last match of the season for David Goffin. In a recent Instagram post, he updated his fans that he has decided to end his 2021 season with immediate effect.

“Hi guys. I wanted to tell you that I am ending my 2021 season. I have had knee pain for a long time and I need time to heal properly,” wrote Goffin in the caption of his Instagram post.

Goffin revealed that he is currently suffering from a knee injury. He needs some time to recover from and thus, made up his mind not to play any more matches in the remaining part of the year.
